February 9, 2022 – Today, the clearing and settlement function in an FI is supported by a combination of new and legacy technology platforms. Still, FIs are seeking more advanced solutions that can shorten the settlement cycle while providing tangible benefits to reduce the operational risk, liquidity risk, counterparty exposure, margin, and collateral requirements. Paxos Trust Company is offering its Paxos Settlement Service (PSS) on a blockchain settlement platform. The platform enables existing market participants to settle trades between themselves and reduce the clearing fees and settlement risk.

This Impact Brief highlights Paxos’ new securities settlement solution offering and reviews the approaches taken by its three clients, looking at the status of their journeys with PSS.
